portland

BJ and I took a quick trip to Portland a couple weekends ago since I had an (unexpected) weekend off coordinating weddings. My husband loves beer more than…well a lot. I think there were more photos of beer the beers we drank than there were of the two of us. Here are a few photos from our trip with my narration below.

We brought our bikes so we could look like Portlanders.

Lunch at 74th Street Alehouse on Phinney Ridge in Seattle.

Crossing over into Oregon.

Just as we were about to turn around we found the Rogue Taphouse. (the luck)

BJ's happy place.

The cup was as big as my face.

100 beers on tap?!

Bacon on a donut?! Only at Voodoo Donuts.

Our loot from Powell's Books. (HUGE independent bookstore)

Shopping in the Pearl District.

Riding bikes across the river to the Mini Beer Fest.

BJ took one for the team and drank all of our beer samples at the Fest. I had too much beer the night before.

Jazzy dinner at Saucebox.

Side note: I love to have photos from our trips of the two of us, makes sense, no? In order to make this happen you have two options: ask a stranger to take a pic or do the stretch arm self-portrait. We opt for the second most of the time, hence, why we have a lot of the same picture of the two of us. I guess we’ll just have to suffer through it until the paparazzi start following us around…
